DISCO, the European Dictionary of Skills and Competences, is an online
thesaurus that currently covers more than
104,000 skills and competence terms and approximately 36,000 example
phrases. Available in eleven European languages, DISCO is one of the
largest collections of its kind in the education and labour market.

The DISCO Thesaurus offers a multilingual and peer-reviewed terminology
for the classification, description and translation of skills and
competences. It is compatible with European tools such as Europass,
ESCO, EQF, and ECVET, and supports the international comparability of
skills and competences in applications such as personal CVs and e-portfolios, job
advertisements and matching, and qualification and learning outcome
descriptions.
